Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index (calculated as a measure of weight in kilograms divided by square of height in meters); CVD, cardiovascular disease; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; GFR, glomerular filtration rate; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HOPE-3, Heart Outcomes Prevention Evaluation–3; NA, not applicable; SBP, systolic blood pressure; SPRINT, Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial.

SI conversion factors: To convert total cholesterol and HDL-C to millimoles per liter, multiply by 0.0259.
